Kaboo Handbags Mix Trendy with Techie

The handbag market is (ka)booming as women realize they can be tech-friendly without sacrificing fashion. Kaboo released a ‘Tech Pouch’ for women, and while not particularly creatively named, its moniker describes its purpose rather simply.

Very few designers target the tech-savvy on-the-go woman. The market for gadgets and fashion is limited, and Kaboo is fixing to make a dent in that market with handbags complete with a Tech Pouch. The handbag’s star feature is designed to hold your thinnest gadgets and protect them from the hazards of modern life. As described by Kaboo, their handbags contain “a shock absorbing cradle tailored to protect to your portable electronic device.”

Aside from the tech pouch the handbags are also fashionable, coming in a variety of sizes and colors. This year at CEA Kaboo is set to release five new handbags in new “fall fashion colors,” according to a press release. All their purses will contain the ‘tech pouch’ as well as pockets for whatever else the trendy woman needs to carry

Though specific dimensions aren’t mentioned on their website, it does mention it can hold an iPad, Sony tablet, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Amazon Kindle, Netbook and NOOK. Presumably, the pouch will hold all sorts of thin gadgets, eReaders and smart phones.

There are various models and colors ranging from shiny black to sunshine yellow, fitting any mood or season. “Olivia” in turquoise is the most popular model and will be present at the CEA shows. The handbags run $125.00 and are available on their website kaboobags.com.
